Maddie

Here's just a little update on Maddie and how she is doing. She turned 6 months on Friday and had her six month appointment. She is 26 3/4 inches long (89 percentile) and 18lbs 12oz (92 percentile) She's a big baby, but believe it or not, her percentiles have gone down.









She is babbling a lot, sitting up on her own, and gets up on her hands an knees. I know she'll be crawling soon. Maddie is extremely social and smiles at everyone she sees. And her favorite activity is to pull mommy's hair. She's such booger! She is adorable and lets just put it this way, I love her soooo much!!!

Tooth Problems

This past weekend has been horrible! Two weeks ago, I had a root canal started, but due to time could not finish so I had to schedule another appointment to finish it. The weekend before my second appointment, my tooth got really infected and hurt like non other! It hurt so bad, I couldn't eat. Which made me sad, because I like to eat and it was super bowl Sunday. Yesterday morning I woke up after a very long night that consisted of on and off sleep, my tooth didn't hurt as bad as it had been. Except for now I had a huge bump in my gums! I went in to the Dentist and they finished the root canal. My mouth feels better, but still hurts a little bit. Morale of the story, root canals stink!!!

Family Pictures

Mandie and Jason came down from Washington for Christmas and Ethan's wedding. So we conveniently got family pictures done. Thanks guys,we really appreciate it and they are wonderful!



Maddie was such a trooper, considering how cold it was outside. We still got a lot of good pictures of her.

Solids!

Maddie had her first serving of rice cereal today. She was actually pretty accepting of it. Not really much of a surprise, she likes her food. She would open her mouth to let the food in, but by the end, it all came right back up. Which is to be expected. I think starting her on solids is going to be pretty easy. I just can't get over the fact that she's old enough for this already! My baby is growing up so fast!
